For 10+ years, I’ve worked within creative agencies and independently, helping brands in varied sectors. I’m relied on for generating breakthrough ideas, directing and executing on design, and developing growth solutions; bridging connections with audiences. My greatest strengths lie in conceptual thinking, crafting brand narratives, and leading through motivating others. Always outgoing, I’m an attentive, articulate hands-on contributor and an authority on advising on women, millennials and multicultural groups. My creativity is fueled by a love for writing, strong visual content, brand experiences, tech, travel and connecting with the world.
